gerry bertier (ryan hurst) and julius campbell (wood harris) sharing a mama joke in the locker room in remember the titans - super funny!
[remember the titans] was a typical great disney sports movie - the team that came together, overcame all odds to narrowly win a championship game or an important game in history. the fact that these movies were all inspired by real life events make it good - but when you realise 'inspired' meant taking great liberties with reality, you sort of check your emotions a little bit.
but why i watched remember the titans again and again was because of the screenplay - loved julius campbell's speech to gerry bertier when gerry was lying in hospital. and surprisingly ryan hurst is amazingly attractive in this film - he's not really known to be good-looking, i think. and ryan gosling was in the film too - still looking like young hercules at tt time, thankfully.
and so ive been hooked on sports movies for a bit now - it started with baseball i think, basketball (Glory Road), then american football and of course ice hockey with Miracle. and now i cnt wait for the american football season to start because i realise i understand the game now! and it actually is quite fun. i used to laugh at the game - not understanding why everyone just kept tackling everyone else. >_<

school's starting in a little bit - and i look absolutely atrocious after coming back from camp. really ten shades darker and a hoarse voice to boot. im kind of glad ivy postponed the interview today cause my voice is horrible. but camp was fun, and HAEDUS was a great group! photos are on facebook but i kind of beg people not to go see cause i look really really black and kinda like pocahontas chief-ish.
PS Ichiro's reaction when he hit the walkoff single to win that Mariners game July 28th was epic - something im glad i got mlb.tv for!
velda.
